Constraining the trend of the $N=50$ shell gap towards ${}^{100}$Sn with the masses of ${}^{96-98}$Cd

D. Lange, D. Atanasov, M. Au +24

We present the first determination of the $N=50$ empirical shell gap at $Z=48$ by precise mass measurements of the neutron-deficient cadmium isotopes ${}^{96-98}$Cd with the ISOL…
